Hello!

Firstly i'd like to say how great it is that PA is so receptive to new prog, independent prog bands trying to 'get out there more'. I had a great experience with DamoXt7942 who accepted us onto PA and the space rock section with our first EP release least year http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=5404, who purchased the EP and then even reviewed it! Was great seeing as i've been a long time browser of this website and have discovered many of my faviourite bands on here. Anyway. If anyone is interested in taking a look at our new release, and perhaps adding it to the archives , please read on!

Thanks guys! 'Hawkwind meets early Gong' you say Scott? Cool. Those you tube clips are older material though (and one is a cover of 'outside your door' by CAN), 'Mars' is from our first EP for example. The material on the new EP is a bit heavier, influenced by pink floyd, radiohead, tool and kraut rock.

I will be recieving the pressed cd's very soon so if anyone else is interested in reviewing and would like a digipak message me your address and I will mail one out.

I am pleased to announce the youtube clips I made in tribute to '2001: A Space Odyssey' movie classic to the music of The Ovals!

Thanks Ovals members for allowing me to use the great music!

I hope the Ovals members like it. It took about a day to make both clips and I managed to import enough pictures to tell the story of the whole movie in screen grabs. Let me know what you think! Sometimes the music is uncannily appropriate to the images...

Clips look sick! our friend actually chanced upon the one for 'always' randomly on youtube! Thanks for reviews scott, damo and rivertree. greatly appreciated. Interview has been completed and sent back, toroddfuglesteg.

Hi Folks, thanks very much to you for reviewing and listening to our EP above. I'm pleased to announce The Ovals have recorded and released a few new songs that we have been gigging around the Melbourne music scene in the last year or so. Two singles, to be precise. One psych, and the other, which will hopefully be of interest around here, prog! 'Acrobat' and it's B-side was released last November and sees us going a bit more 'heavy', and at the same time more proggy than our last EP Into the Eyes of those Who Sleep. We recorded this one to 8-track tape for a lovely warm feel Check it out at:
